Ineos Grenadiers has revealed the names of riders scheduled to take part in the UAE Tour starting this Monday. The British team is going with Elia Viviani as their leader.
After beginning his season at Vuelta a San Juan Internacional, where he faced stiff competition from Remco Evenepoel, Viviani failed to achieve any podium finishes, making the upcoming UAE Tour a crucial event for him to seek success. Additionally, he recently participated in the European Track Cycling Championships in Grenchen, Switzerland, but was forced to withdraw early due to sickness.
The team has chosen to incorporate a mixture of youthful and experienced riders. The younger members, namely Luke Plapp, Kim Heiduk, Joshua Tarling, and Ben Tulett, will prioritize aiding their leader while also gaining valuable knowledge. In contrast, Ben Swift and Cameron Wurf have been tasked with supporting Viviani in his quest for both stage triumphs and success in the GC.
Ineos Grenadiers for UAE Tour: Elia Viviani, Luke Plapp , Kim Heiduk, Joshua Tarling, Ben Tulett, Ben Swift and Cameron Wurf.

- I see (elsewhere) that Alaphilippe had more to say than what got relayed in this stub. Me: he was very good early but his latter third trajectory was the pits. His old boss did what he could (huffed and puffed) but Julian couldn't get his greatness back. Sometimes I wonder if crashes that didn't look like much changed the course of the rider.flyer14-11-2026
- I wouldn't classify it as a gift because the nasty consequences of taking it from Sepp would have been great and would persist and he knew it.flyer14-11-2026
- Ok. Tratnik's good and Red Bull's better so Tratnik may get what he wants.flyer14-11-2026
- Ok. So just saying he wasn't enjoying racing anymore is some kind of explanation? Me saying I don't enjoy his explanation is more explaining than he did.flyer14-11-2026
- Buitrago, was he their best rider in 2026? He's the chief loss for them and Martinez and Tiberi (especially) have to step up or they will be overtaken by Bahrain's younger riders like Omrzel. I'm still somewhat high on Martinez but Tiberi, after showing signs of promise, has fizzled. Bahrain still has a good team but they need to improve and exceed expectations. I'd be happy if Mohoric could manage to return to his better form for maybe one last year at least.flyer14-11-2026
- Hmmm, "... I just gained 30 seconds purely off the bike. Because it's really a big, big improvement compared to the previous bike". Is that marketing for Specialized or serious valid hype, or something in between? Very likely the former.flyer14-11-2026
- Nothing revelatory or controversial. Why do we have to report on Bruyneel's or Armstrong's thinking. It's a shame and enough that the Move's on TV and that people watch it .flyer14-11-2026
- Makes sense that training from home is a big asset or advantage but it's still remarkable that he can put in three quality majors and not pay some heavy price for the exertion. I wish he would have won that tour stage that his crash while leading allowed Carapaz the win. He's a darn good rider and teammate.flyer14-11-2026
- Sounds like we all agree with the over under exaggeration: "The German’s signing does not guarantee that Evenepoel will win the Tour in 2027. "flyer14-11-2026
- Seixas appears to be that good but if he isn't (an absolute rival to Pogacar) he would have plenty of company in rising stars that did not go on to fully meet the expectations of many. That Pogacar wasn't the greatest (as great) sooner can't be transposed onto another's development. It may be not that simple.flyer14-11-2026
